YouTube just made it harder to avoid ads with a tiny skip button
  • I'm all about malicious compliance.

    I let the ads run, after I've switched countries with my VPN. Best of luck trying to sell me something in Estonian, Finnish, Portuguese, Thai, etc.

  • Arizona Republican officials face criminal charges for delay in certifying last year’s election results
  • What does this have to do with conservatives?

    Currently? It has everything to do with conservatives. The same way that gerrymandering has everything to do with conservatives. The same way that voter suppression has everything to do with conservatives.

    The venn diagram is nearly completely overlapping circles.

    What is your religion and what led you to identifying with / believing in it?
  • My faith corroded as my critical thinking skills developed. I'd consider myself a strong atheist on the Dawkins scale.

    I haven't seen anything that would nudge me off of my position towards agnosticism.

  • I'm transsexual, not transgenser
  • My pronoun policy is based on a live and let live frame of reference, and disregard the lexical accuracy considerations. I don't know what's accurate, but will use whatever pronouns a person wants.

    I personally want to bypass any "men and females" vibe, where I try to tell a trans person what pronouns are technically correct, at the expense of disregarding/dismissing their subjective reality. I wouldn't want to do that even if I had all the linguistic leverage to press the point.

    I might be wrong, but I'm comfortable with not insisting on specific labels and names for people who are not me.

  • Will there be a pro version?
  • If and when pro becomes available, I'm in. I'm in regardless, but will pay for pro if available.

  • What is your religion and what led you to identifying with / believing in it?
  • I was raised Roman Catholic, but am feeling much better now.

    I'm an atheist because religion describes our reality about as well as Flat Earthers describe the shape of our planet.

  • People in Canada can no longer access news content on Meta's platforms
  • Good. You're not supposed to go to Facebook to be informed.

  • How Americans Got So Stupid
  • Republicans. The answer is Republicans.

  • Dumb ways to die
  • This is known informally as "thinning the herd".

  • No Freedom to Lie
  • A private company is following through on enforcing their Terms of Service, and are making it difficult for me to Violate their Terms of Service.

    Waaahhhhhhhh!

  • AOC being attacked because of a harmless selfie
  • To be fair, it's probably much easier for Republicans to criticize AOC for non-issues, than it is to make their own platform palatable to normal people.

  • Here’s what we know about lab-grown meat and climate change
  • Can you clarify why you think it will be carcinogenic?

  • My deluxe chess set arrived, and it's Chess 2.0 compatible*.
